Just before I left Marathon they rolled out a Sygate firewall client to all
machines.  I wasn't involved, but it appears to let you set up at multiple
centrally-administered configs for the client.  Marathon built one for use
while connected to the internal network, and one for use  when connected to
external networks.  Sygate calls the product "Sygate Secure
Enterprise"

The built-in XP firewall (at least as of SP2) allows for two configs also,
one whle connected to the domain to which the machine belongs and the other
for use while unconnected.  You can see that by running gpedit.msc and
navigating to Computer Settings->Administrative
Templates->Network->Network Connections->Windows Firewall.
